6:10 PM ACROSS LAKE INARI
Country of origin: Czech Republic, Length: 19 min, Director: Petr Jan Juračka, Language: Czech
What started as an idea over a beer on a meadow in Bohemian Paradise, ended with a winter cycling trip to a frozen lake far beyond the Arctic Circle. Photographer Petr Jan Juračka and his partner Juha set off on fatbikes across the endless plains of Inari - with frost, dust and their own clumsiness as the main adversaries. Along the way, they discover log cabins without reservations, a sauna as a refuge, and unexpected friends. The result is an adventurous and humorous film chronicle about how sometimes all you need is a map, a bicycle and a good dose of courage to turn a crazy idea into a life experience.
